Mumbai, 19/2: The Shiv Sena vs Shiv Sena battle over party’s name and bow-and-arrow election symbol is set to land in the Supreme Court with both sides planning to move the apex court, which is already hearing a bunch of petitions regarding the split in the saffron party.
This is perhaps the worst-ever crisis that the 56-year-old saffron party – with the mission welfare of Marathi-manoos and pursuing the Hindutva-agenda – is facing.
The legal battle between the Uddhav Thackeray-led group and the Eknath Shinde-led faction is going to be more intense in the days to come.
The Shiv Sena had contested on symbols coconut tree, railway engine, sword and shield, burning torch, cup and saucer among others before the bow and arrow was allotted in 1989.
